The BXD5 strain used as the paternal strain in this intercross is a recombinant inbred strain that was derived by crossing C57BL/6J and DBA/2J lines of mice [ 58].
Recombination density could be further increased by starting RI strains from either advanced intercross progeny [ 36] or heterogeneous stock (Figure 4) as was done in making the new set of 40 BXD strains mentioned above.
The QTLs on chromosome 1 and chromosome 13 (a sex-limited QTL) were detected in two mapping populations, that is, the BXD recombinant inbred strains and a B6D2 F2 intercross [ 16, 17].
The expectation is that a map based on loci that are spaced at intervals of 1 cM ( c = 0.01 in an intercross) will be expanded approximately 3.66-fold.
Because of interference, the occurrence of two recombinations within 10 cM is highly improbable in an F2 intercross, and consequently, double recombinants are often used as a measure of genotyping error or incorrect marker order.
